The latest version of Android Studio, namely Android Studio 2.2.0 is available and can be downloaded. Android 2.2 Studio was introduced at Google i/o 2016 and is themost recent version that can be used by millions of developers Android.
Some improvement on this Studio include Android Layout Editor improvements, the addition of APK Analyzer, Code Inspector, Layout Analysis are enhanced, fixes bugsthat take away from its base of IntelliJ 2016.1.3, and many more. Additionally on Android 2.2 at this Studio, developer support is more for the latest Android platform version i.e. Android 7.0 Nougat, for example "code completion" when writing code that utilizes the latest API of Android 7.0 Nougat. Here are some of the features will be explained briefly.

New layout editor display that is usually used to make designs for Android application has now been fixed. There is an additional display of the Blue Print that can be used to look at the composition and layout settings have been made.

Mode of making a new layout which has now been added on Android 2.2 is Constraint Studio Layout. Where a developer can design a layout using the Blue Print modeand drag n drop layout editor. And the resulting layout can be compatible up to version Android 2.3 Gingerbread.

Android application development can use C++ language, and on Android version 2.2 of this Studio, C++ support has been improved. Of which developers can now useCMake or NDK Build to compile C++ project of Gradle directly. In addition there is an increase in repair bugs in C++ editor and debugging.

If any developers that confusion on the method or class of the Android framework used Android, developers are now able to search for code samples directly from Android Studio. Suppose we are confused about the class RecyclerView and want to findsample code, we simply right click on the RecyclerView class and choose "Find Sample Code".

Methods of compiling and debugging i.e. Instant Run introduced since Android Studio 2.0 is now undergoing upgrades and improvements. With Instant Run, developers no longer need to wait for the process "gradle-build" long periods when it will run its codes to the device directly in debug mode.

One of the new features of Android 2.2 Studio namely APK Analyzer. Developers can now inspect the contents of the APK has made and find out the size of each component in the APK, such as image size and also the library used. This feature is useful for troubleshooting on multidex and also mengkomparasi the contents of two different versions of the APK for the same application.

The developers of Android maker Studio continues to increase the speed of "build"of the project with the addition of the Build method of the Cache to reduce the compile time code. If you want to try this feature, developers simply add android. enableBuildCache = true on the gradle. properties.

Android emulator now has some emulation of virtual sensor control. The existence of this feature, developers can test the application by using the Accelerometer sensor, Ambient Temperature, Magnetometer and many more.

By using Espresso Test Recorder, developers can easily perform UI Testing by recording the interactions that occur in the application, and UI Test Code automatically that can be used repeatedly for testing the UI.

This latest Android Studio also adds GPU Debugger features but still in Beta. Developers can record the look of OpenGL is going on inside the device and analyse it directly inside the Android Studio. The developer can inspect the status of the GPU on each command Open GL ES for analyzing graphics display of game or application.

  1. Thanks for sharing. You can't store everything on your mobile device, especially if it's something important and has to be private. I can suggest data room m&a from my own experience.
